Center for Archival Collections

The Center for Archival Collections is an archives and manuscripts
repository within University Libraries at Bowling Green State
University. Our collection strengths include our manuscript
collections, the Historical Collection of the Great Lakes, our Rare
Books & Special Collections, and the National Student Affairs
Archive. We are also the home of the BGSU University Archives, and
house local records from the nineteen counties of Northwest Ohio. Our
collections can be used for scholarly, political, and family and
genealogical resesarch, and we welcome BGSU students and faculty,
local residents, and scholars from around the world!

There are three main ways to search our materials: search the BGSU
catalog, browse or search our finding aids, or search our site. More
helpful links are listed below. If you still do not find what you are
looking for, ask us! Feel free to call, email, or "Ask An Archivist!"

ACCESSIBILITY

Bowling Green State University (BGSU) has built their website around the Standards of the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML) 5 and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). The website was built in compliance with the accessibility standards established by section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act and detailed in section 1194.22 of the Code of Federal Regulations, “Web-based intranet and internet information and applications” (http://www.section508.gov/summary-section508-standards#web ).

BGSU utilizes many web masters across campus to maintain all of its web properties. Keeping the BGSU website in compliance with section 508 is a joint effort between Disability Services, Marketing and Communications and Information Technology Services. If any page is discovered to be inaccessible, please report it using the above link and we will ensure that the issue is addressed.
